Seattle interim police chief gets RV policy enforcement duties without added funding
Original source: westsideseattle.com

Interim Seattle Police Chief Andre Sayles was assigned full responsibility for enforcing the city's new RV policy requiring unpermitted vehicles wider than 80 inches to move every two hours or face towing, but with no new staff or budget. The City Council's draft legislation allocates $2 million from the Human Services Department for outreach, though no RV parks are open and no one is receiving services. RV owners must enroll in a one-time-only permit program or face towing and fines. The city previously spent about $12 million on RV parks, but none are open, and one, Glassyard Commons, is listed for sale.

North Yorkshire Council reviews overnight campervan ban after resident complaints

North Yorkshire Council is reassessing an experimental overnight parking ban for motorhomes on its coast after it displaced vehicles to residential streets. The ban, implemented last November in Scarborough, Whitby, and Cayton, led to over 2,000 complaints about issues like grey water discharge and noise. Councilors confirm the review will consider options, including reinstating controlled overnight parking with proper enforcement.

Rye bans overnight parking and camping in vehicles townwide

The town of Rye has enacted a ban on overnight parking and camping in all vehicles, including campers and vans, citing public health and safety issues. The ordinance, effective immediately, prohibits the practice from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m. on all town roads, parks, and beaches, with violators facing a $100 fine. Police state the measure primarily targets beachgoers and visitors, not the homeless population, and will initially focus on education over enforcement.
